HELLO, WORLD!
So I'm back from trip (and the seemingly endless internetless days!). I saw some great apartments - if BFF decides to come with me, we can get a great reduced rent apartment (in a complex with a POOL!) right on the bus-line. If not, the on-campus grad housing isn't that bad, and I'd be able to afford a single. Mostly, it was GREAT to see all the folks I'm going to be working with next year, and figure out what slots my directing projects are going to be in!
I got HUGS. All the people I met during my interview days were happy to see me, and excited I accepted the offer! I was worried I'd have, like, buyer's remorse. But I don't. Not even a little bit. :D So to those of you who told me it was the right decision: thank you, thank you, thank you.
To my Sweet Charity winners: I AM WORKING ON YOUR FICS/WILL EMAIL YOU ABOUT YOUR PROMPTS! Thank you SO MUCH for bidding, and donating to such a wonderful charity!
AWESOME FIC THAT HAS BEEN WRITTEN:
PEOPLE. IF YOU HAVE A HEARTBEAT AND/OR A SEX DRIVE: GO READ themkshrine's " Cherry Bloom." It's Neal/Peter & Diana/El, and it is SO HOT and HEATWARMING and AMAZING. SERIOUSLY. She knocked it WAY THE FUCK OUT OF THE BALLPARK. I'm still in awe (strap-ons and COUNTER!SEX. YES. OKAY. ALL THE TIME).
gyzym has written two fics I have been pining over for weeks: girl!Neal and library!sex. SERIOUSLY. GIRL!NEAL (nipples. And sex toys and it deals intelligently with sex/gender issues) and LIBRARY!SEX. SEX. IN A LIBRARY. IDEK. I have made out in a library before, and despite the fact that no clothing was removed, it is perhaps the highlight of my sexual life. She had me backed up against the shelves holding Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides in the Ancient Greek. The only book not on the shelf was the one I was translating. GOD, I AM SO EXCITED FOR GRAD SCHOOL.
And finally: lovefanfiction has claimed all her kink meme fills - and, folks? She? IS AMAZING. She's written a TON of kink, so just go to her LJ and roll around in that when you need to make happytimes in your pants. My personal fave: Sore for Your Touch. Begging!Neal and forced orgasms. UUUUUUUNF.
I have probably missed a few (rec'ing and commenting): IT IS NOT BECAUSE I DON'T LOVE YOU OODLES AND BUNCHES! BECAUSE I DO! I have just been uber-busy.
And a question:
I'm going to be directing two plays this next year, and I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I'm looking for full-length plays with small casts (no more than five or six people). I like plays about power, plays with strong women, dark comedies, or anything Greek. I'm also looking for recs for any female playwrights y'all think are awesome. I was making a list of plays-to-read this summer, and realized the proportion of male/female is SERIOUSLY out of whack. So. Any thoughts on plays you've seen/read/heard of that I should check out...? Thanks in advance!
